Cambridge's very own Indie-Rock flag bearer, Tom Lumley, has today revealed his brand new track "Modern Age", and he's given us the official premiere, what a lad! If you're used to his work then this track might be more of a heavier affair, however it doesn't stray too far from Tom's roots, captivating guitars, festival-ready lyrics that you can sing-along to and a well produced backline.

Speaking about the track, Lumley explained - "For as long as there’s been a jurisdiction in place, there’s been people unhappy with how certain things are done. Some people stand up with banners at marches, some people do it with graffiti on the streets, art in galleries or in literature. We’re just a few more raising our voices, this time in song"

Back in early November, we had the good fortune of being able to premiere Ed's latest tune, I Was Wrong - an upbeat and conscientious ode to loves and situations passed, a truly gripping return to Ed's roots as a classic singer-songwriter. Now sharing the stunning acoustic alternate take (which can be viewed below), we caught up with Ed to hear some of his story.

Hey Ed, thanks for taking the time to speak with us.My pleasure! Thanks for taking the time to listen! To start with, how would you describe your music to someone that's never heard it before? I’d say the thing that distinguishes me from other artists that are similar is that my focus is always on the quality of the song. Regardless of what genre I’m writing in or what the production sounds like, my sincere hope is that there is a consistency of quality in the songwriting that transcends genre and is uniquely mine. How did you get into writing music? My mother was and still is an incredible composer and a creative pers…

Manuka Hive have chosen to give It's All Indie's readers an exclusive listen to their brand new single "Slave" two days ahead of the official release date (14 Nov).

Fusing their quirky genre-bending rock and roll for just over
a year now, Yorkshire four-piece Manuka Hive’s journey so far has been nothing short of
incredible. Smashing into the scene with the relentless motions of a freight
train, they haven’t taken their foot off the gas since day one and now they’re
about to release their most ambitious single to date.
From anthemic sing-along, hands-in-the-air choruses to cool-as-you-like verses that are brimming with attitude, Manuka Hive thrust themselves into grizzly glam obscurity with Slave, a track that is bound to get any place moving from the get-go. Charlie Phelps’ snarly vocal hooks and addictive lyrics pierce through the fuzzy frenzy of riffs provided by Tom Laffey, whilst the solid, grooving rhythm section of Joel Phillips and Miles Machen complete their…

We first picked up on Sisteray back in 2015 when we premiered their track "No Escape", and back then they already had a lot of praise from figures in the music industry with DJ's at BBC London and XFM (Radio X) already liking what they heard.

Since then they've refined their sound and craft and are one of the exciting bands in the capital that regularly play to packed crowds. The band are currently signed to an independent record label which was founded in good old East London in 2016 by label manager Elliott Hale, Vallance Records is one hundred percent independent and totally behind its artists.

Speaking to Susan earlier on this year Dan says - " ... Elliott gives us a lot of freedom to do more or less what we want to do. It is a collaborative relationship. As a band you do not really want anything else and it is an ideal situation for us. That is one of the main differences from being signed to a major record label where there might be someone telling you wha…
